State Rejects Linn County Redistricting Plan
The Iowa Secretary of State rejects Linn County’s proposed redistricting splitting Cedar Rapids across four of five districts. Officials debate compactness versus legal requirements as a temporary commission may resubmit with documentation. The outcome could trigger state drawn maps if unapproved again.

Redrawn county map would tilt power toward Cedar Rapids
The proposed district plan splits 211 266 total population with Cedar Rapids housing 126 326 people. District 3 would be fully Cedar Rapids, District 1 rural majority, while a four district map creates a doughnut shaped rural area and Marion heavy district. Critics say Cedar Rapids would gain de facto control.
